new birkenstocks available

In autumn 2007 Birkenstock Japan used our traditional Welsh Knot Garden fabric for a very successful range of mules.There was such interest,that Birkenstock UK decided to put 60 pairs in their Neal Street, Covent Garden store. They did really well with them, so this year we’re working together to launch some brand new designs here in the UK.

Spring 2009 

For this spring Birkenstock UK have designed a new unisex Antwerpen clog covered in our Luna fabric. There are two colours available now: grey and soft green (see below) with another two promised for the autumn.

The clog features leather lined wool uppers, an adjustable leather strap and a replaceable leather lined footbed made by Birkenstock together with PU outer sole for indoor and outdoor use. Sizes available are 36 - 41 European (see chart below). They are priced at £79.99

At the moment they are available exclusively through the Natural Shoe Store at Neal Street Covent Garden, King’s Road and Richmond. Get over there while stocks last or check out their UK website as they are also available online. 

Our Melin Tregwynt stock has now arrived but stocks are limited so please ring 01348 891 644 and bag your own pair early. Only £85.00

autumn 2009

This autumn we’ll have two additional colours in the clog, along with a long boot and a shoe (for a sneaky peak at all the styles see below). These designs will be available only from the Natural Shoe Store and Melin Tregwynt so contact us on 01348 891 644 for further information.

Waitrose Picnic Blanket Competition

 

Win a picnic blanket (like the one in the Waitrose tv advert – only smaller)

You could win a picnic blanket (150cm x 200cm) made by Melin Tregwynt just like the one featured in the Waitrose television ad (only smaller).

The blanket used in the television advert was the size of four tennis courts and weighed one tonne! It is no surprise that it has been certified for a Guinness World Record as the largest picnic blanket in the world.

The blanket used in the advert was sent to Westfalia Farm, one of the Waitrose Foundation farms, and cut into more than 500 quilts and then given to crèches across our Foundation farms in South Africa.

There are 30 picnic blankets to be won, and the closing date for the competition is 31st July 2008. Terms and conditions apply.

Winners will be sent the picnic blanket within 15 working days from the closing date.

For your chance to win simply click enter and follow the instructions.

All entries must be received by the closing date of midnight on the 31st July 2008.

New Birkenstock Images

     

Some more nice images of our fabric on the Antwerpen clog by Birkenstock. These images are from a Japanese retailer called Beans. The shoes have been really popular and we’re going to be doing more work with Birkenstock this year both in Japan, and possibly here in the UK. Watch this space

Check out their UK website as I think they still have a few available online.

Birkenstock Update

Birkenstock are using our traditional Welsh Knot Garden fabric for a new range of mules. They were only going to be launched in Japan this year and Europe in 2008. Following an earlier mention here and a short news item in Selvedge magazine  (a brilliant read for those of you interested in textiles) there was such interest, that Birkenstock decided to put 60 pairs in their Neal Street, Covent Garden store.

 Get over there while stocks last or check out their UK website as they are also available online. A real exclusive.
